the great things of which the angel spoke – v2

looking up at Jesus

my child on the cross

trying to make sense of this

the prophecy of Simeon

great things of which the angel spoke

all of this too much for me

beyond my understanding

what did the Magi mean

by the gifts they brought Him

when he was a child

my baby, my little child,

hanging on this cross
